Point Of Sale Systems and solutions in UAE




FloristWare is considered an "independent" POS system in that is independent of wire services such as FTD or Teleflora. These companies and others like them offer their own proprietary POS systems for florists. It also uses a "Question & Answer" interface.
Each step asks the user one question, which in turn determines the next step until the desired task has been completed.


point of sale (POS) is the time and place where a retail transaction is completed. It is the point at which a customer makes a payment to the merchant in exchange for goods or after provision of a service. At the point of sale, the merchant would prepare an invoice for the customer (which may be a cash register printout) or otherwise calculate the amount owed by the customer and provide options for the customer to make payment.


The POS in various retail situations would use customized hardware and software tailored to their particular requirements. Retailers may utilize weighing scales, scanners, electronic and manual cash registers, EFTPOS terminals, touch screens and a variety of other hardware and software available.



point of sale is often referred to as the point of service because it is not just a point of sale but also a point of return or customer order. 
Additionally, today POS software may include additional features to cater for different functionality, such as inventory management, CRM, financials, warehousing, etc.


POS systems are by far one of the most complex of software because of the features that are required by different end-users. The reporting functionality alone is subject to so many demands especially from those in the retail/wholesale industry.
POS systems are also very demanding in terms of accuracy given that monetary transaction is constantly involved not only via the sale window but also at the backend through the receiving and inputting of goods into the inventory.
